New code fragment posted to the
Code section of this site:
iffdigest, a very lightweight library for decoding IFF/RIFF files in C++ (which will make its way into the audio tools I'm working on). if you need to pull apart IFF files of some sort, are already using C++/STL and don't want to depend on any heavyweight file-format libraries, you may find it useful.
Actually, this will probably be updated in the next day or two; in hindsight, I decided to tidy some things up and add some functions which would be useful in most practical applications. Watch the URL.
